    #11 once you move to Las Vegas and then leave, I would say The percentage of people that always come back is higher than anywhere else.

    Looks like you and I moved to Vegas in the same year in 2016 from LA and have seen these shifts. This is the most in-depth and honest list of why people have moved. I will share this with people that are thinking of moving here.

    I moved here 9 yes ago (lived here 3 yrs in the 90s, which is why I chose this city to return to). I used to go to the strip 3x a week to just walk up and back 5.3 miles for exercise and to enjoy th scenery. Havent been back to strip since Covid because of parking fees and other prices. Also havent been to Fremont since Covid dueto cost and high prices and parking. I miss thisr being a 24-hr town when i could go to wal-mart when i got off work at 11pm. I feel that I just stay in my house anymore. I would move if it didnt cost too much for the actual move. I miss being able to afford to go out.

      I’m sorry to hear that. Covid changed a lot about this city. I think it changed a lot about everywhere. Thank you for watching!!

    I visit LV several times a year, dont gamble much and i dont drink, just love the vibe. My cousin lives there for many years in henderson. Stay off the strip its relaxing. Where i live outside Seattle, there is 270 days of rain a year. I hate it. All good points you mention. I am retired so debating move. Good video.

    That's interesting about the dry air. I lived in Phoenix for 47 (born there). I've been on the central coast of CA for the past 2.5 yrs. We are now looking at Vegas to live 8 months out of the year (I will not live there in the summer!) and I am curious to see if I will notice the dry air now. haha

      I think you may. It’s not unbearable, but I definitely put lotion on more than when I lived in CA and I always have a humidifier on.

    Hello. Any tips on a couple moving from Hawaii, late 20’s, no kids, currently each of us works 6 days a week and double shifts in Hawaii, looking to give Vegas a go maybe a year or 2 at the most. My bf works at 2 resorts and I’m an assistant mgr at an arcade and work for a drug testing lab. Not looking to buy a car in hopes of living near work in Vegas.

    • @adamhockenbery8819

      Congrats!! It’ll be a great move!! They call Las Vegas the ninth island because so many Hawaiians come here. If you are looking to rent and walk, the downtown arts district area is the best in the city other than the strip. The strip is also good, but very expensive. I actually have a video coming out in the next month or so about the most walkable neighborhoods in Las Vegas. I would say overall vegas is not very walkable. But there are neighborhoods you can get by. I hope that helps. Thank you for watching!!

      Sista
      I give you some advice. Bradda to sista..
      1) have your BF check with his HR to see if any of his resorts has sister properties in Vegas, and utilize that option first.
      2)stay away from strip casinos, yeah get the name and glamour, of the name, but fighting traffic and squeezing your okole to avoid layoffs and reduced hours (seasonally) is not worth it. Probably make the same amount of Kala anyway.
      3) local casino/resorts are better ( Boyd properties, station casinos, red rock hotel/casino, South Pointe resort/casino should be the number ONE targets.
      4)if there is a new hotel/casino opening at or around the time of your move, go for it, because they going over hire. So that's a good way to get your feet in the door. BUT, BUT ,BUT. When one overhires you better damm know in a year or two, they going do major layoffs. So unless your on top 30% on the seniority list, I wouldn't Bank on job security.
      5) go through the pre employment process while your still at home. Apply online, schedule the interview on your days off if can, if not. Take a vacation days or call in sick. But keep your jobs through the process. No just go Gung ho.
      7) the year you guys going come if nothing fell through with jobs yet. Come vacation maybe 3 times and network with fellow kanaks.. look when get the hawaiian festivals and stuff like that. I said three times so you really experience the weather type. The cold in December/january. The oven heat in august/September
      8) I would rent at least the first 6 months. I know our goal is to buy house. But you no like be tied down with a major purchase in a city where nothing is guaranz..
      Last but not least.
      Be patient,, run the hawaiian time method.
      Trust ke akua. If plans not working, wasn't ke akua's plans

    Yes, the wages in Las Vegas is a joke. My pay as a nurse at UMC was ridiculously low compared to my pay in California. On top of that, my rent was high, almost like my rent in Los Angeles. Practically 60% of my check went to pay my rent. I lived in Las Vegas for only three years and I hightail it back to California. Las Vegas healthcare industry is disastrous as well. I saw more and more doctors leaving Las Vegas to practice in California because the pay is just better.

    Healthcare. Low quality hospitals and doctors. You would think it would improve as the population grows but that's not the case. Fortunately, top notch medical facilities, surgeons, specialists are a 1 hour flight away in Los Angeles. Obviously if it's a medical emergency or you are too ill to travel you to avail yourself of what's in Las Vegas.
